[Verse]
F# Cb/F# F# Cb F#
I didn't mean to treat you so bad
Cb F#/A# C#
You shouldn't take it so personal
F# Cb/F# F# Cb F#
I didn't mean to make you so sad
Cb F#/A# C#
You just happened to be there, that's all
[Bridge]
D#m A#m
When I saw you say "goodbye" to your friend and smile
G#m F#
I thought that it was well understood
D#m A#m
That you'd be comin' back in a little while
G#m Cb C#
I didn't know that you were sayin' "goodbye" for goo-----ood
[Chorus]
F# C#/F Cb/D# F#/C#
But, sooner or later, one of us must know
Cb F#/A# C#
You just did what you're supposed to do
F# C#/F Cb/D# F#/C#
Sooner or later, one of us must know
Cb F#/A# C#
That I really did try to get close to you
[Interlude]

[Verse]
F# Cb/F# F# Cb F#
I couldn't see what you could show me
Cb F#/A# C#
Your scarf had kept your mouth well hid
F# Cb/F# F# Cb F#
I couldn't see how you could know me
Cb F#/A# C#
But you said you knew me and I believed you did
[Bridge]
D#m A#m
When you whispered in my ear
G#m F#
And asked me if I was leavin' with you or her
D#m A#m
I didn't realize just what I did hear
G#m Cb C#
I didn't realize how young you we------re
[Chorus]
F# C#/F Cb/D# F#/C#
But, sooner or later, one of us must know
Cb F#/A# C#
You just did what you're supposed to do
F# C#/F Cb/D# F#/C#
Sooner or later, one of us must know
Cb F#/A# C#
That I really did try to get close to you

[Verse]
F# Cb/F# F# Cb F#
I couldn't see when it started snowin'
Cb F#/A# C#
Your voice was all that I heard
F# Cb/F# F# Cb F#
I couldn't see where we were go-in'
Cb F#/A# C#
But you said you knew an' I took your word
[Bridge]
D#m A#m
And then you told me later, as I apologized
G#m F#
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
D#m A#m
An' I told you, as you clawed out my eyes
G#m Cb C#
That I never really meant to do you any ha-----rm
[Chorus]
F# C#/F Cb/D# F#/C#
But, sooner or later, one of us must know
Cb F#/A# C#
You just did what you're supposed to do
F# C#/F Cb/D# F#/C#
Sooner or later, one of us must know
Cb F#/A# C#
That I really did try to get close to you
